Staff Pick: My First Day

Explore some of the fascinating things that animals do on their first day.

Human babies can’t do much on the first day they’re born. Can animal babies do more? This book talks about many different animals on their first day. The baby capybara swims and dives on his first day. The baby polar bear curls up in a snow den with his mother. The baby sifaka rides piggyback. This is a wonderful description of what baby animals do to survive their first day. It also has extra information in the back about each animal in the book.
